lyrics

I sat and stared, feel somehow unprepared. I sat and stared, feel unprepared.
Melting bottles, melting bottles in the flames, watch them twist and break, watch them twist and break.

Oh all I can do is wait, oh and try and keep up the pace.

In the background an old familiar sound, in the background, an old familiar sound.
Comforts my drunken, comforts my drunken state. Never want to wake, never want to wake.

Oh all I can do is wait, oh and try and keep up the pace.

James Dey Leeds, UK

James is based in Leeds, England, where he finds inspiration in birds, trees, overheard conversations and nostalgic longings. The music is all hushed beauty, telling small stories of seemingly unremarkable things.
2022 will see the release of new album ‘Tongues in Trees’, drawn from James' theatre soundtracks.

“Beautiful, exploratory, gorgeous songwriting…I love it” - Guy Garvey, BBC 6 Music. ... more
